Several witnesses were} examined who overheard Mr. Weit-) |zel’s verbal assault on Mr. Huson. } Justice Kearney concluded that if Mr, Weitzel had not been under } the influence of liquor the trouble | {would not have occurred, and al- lowed him to go after “taking the | |pledge” not to drink intoxicating | liquors for a period of three mont Both Messrs Huson and | Weitzel are old soldiers of the ®ivil war. Under a state law all soldiers of ‘61 to ‘65, who may be jin need, are entitled to state aid jin the sum of six dollars monthly. The board having control of issu- ing this monthly pittance appoints lan agent in each county to report jon worthy cases. Comrade Huson | ,acts as such agent for Itasca coun- ty. Comrade Weitzel had been re- ceiving such aid until recently, when it was discontinued. He charged Huson with being the cause of his loss of the six dol- lars per month, and last Monday afternoon he called at Huson’s of- fice when it is said he made use! of very abusive language and also threatened to employ violence with fatal results. Weitzel was un- der the influence of liquor at the time. Under all the circumstan- ces Justice Kearney felt that no further trouble would be likely to arise if the old warrior of Buck- iail fame would abstain from fur- ther indulgence in fighting fire water.
